The Smirnoff Black Screenings take place throughout the summer at Bluebird restaurant giving you the chance to catch some classic screenings from the past. With the likes of Humphrey Bogart and Marilyn Monroe gracing the screen, the Smirnoff Black Screenings are possibly the most sophisticated of all the summer cinema events taking place in the capital.

The Bluebird restaurant and courtyard have been given a glamorous makeover with stylish sunloungers, black and white striped parasols and even the staff are now decked out in 50s style Hollywood glamour. Taking you back to an era of style, sophistication and decadent cocktails, the Smirnoff Black Screenings invite you to chill out for the evening and take a trip down with some nostalgic cinema.

Every Wednesday night at 8pm, you can settle down on the sunloungers with fantastic Smirnoff Black cocktails and watch movies from the classic eras of the thirties, forties, fifties and sixities. Starring smoothies like Frank Sinatra, Tony Curtis and Cary Grant. The leading ladies in the Smirnoff Black Screenings are just as chic, with Ingrid Bergman, Grace Kelly and Audrey Hepburn starring alongside their smouldering co stars.

To accompany the Smirnoff Black screenings a list of inspired Smirnoff Black cocktails have been created so that you can sip one or two while catching all the action on the big screen. Sample a Go Mango made from vodka, cointreau, mango and lime, a Sunshine Martini made from vodka, organe juice, lemon juice and honey, or a Pebble Beach Punch, made from vodka, pineapple juice and pomegranate syrup, making the film screenings the ultimate in cocktail relaxtion.

You can also book a table at the restaurant to coincide with a film screening, either pre or post film, to add to the indulgent tone of the evening. The full lineup of films showing during the Smirnoff Black Screenings at Bluebird looks like this:
